​​​​​​​Rugby is part of NZ's culture and is widely considered our national sport.  

It is a great sport to introduce to children at a young age. As a sport rugby can help children learn that certain attributes and skills can be developed and grown. Playing rugby is a fantastic way to make lifelong friends, as well as experience what it’s like to be part of a team.

Registering your child to play rugby is easy: 

• 'Click to Register' to create your child's Rugby Xplorer profile.
• The Club / School will soon be in touch with more information about trainings and games.
